It's Toe Tapper and Torch Song's twentieth anniversary. Toe Tapper has been planning the surprise for a while, but he would like his son Down Beat to perform a song for it while he prepares everything else. Being an artist with some pride, he elects to write the song himself.

Beat is a little overwhelmed by the task.

Inspired by Walk the Moon's "Shut Up And Dance"

Transitioning was the best thing Caramel ever did for herself and her boyfriend was completely supportive... But since she transitioned, something feels off.

Gender roles are rough.

During her time-twisting battle with Starlight Glimmer, Twilight finds herself in an Equestria ruled by a tyrant alicorn that calls herself the Queen of Equestria. In this world, Twilight's friends are gone and beyond her aid, and Equestria's citizens live in fear of their ruler's wrath should they anger her.

But no one has ever seen the pony who suffers the most in this world.

There's a plague infecting Equestria, and Diamond Tiara has taken it upon herself to cure it. They may be stronger in number and in sheer absurdity, but she's got a little something special to even the odds.

That something being a three-foot long magically enchanted samurai sword. Look, nobody said this was gonna be pretty.

In the timeline where the Changelings have taken over Equestria, Trixie has managed to find a shadow of her former life as an entertainer in Zecora's camp. She doesn't preform for giant crowds anymore, and while she misses the grandeur, she's managed to live a happy life entertaining the children of the camp with her stories and small tricks.
But all that comes crashing down when Queen Chrysalis and her Changelings attack. Now, Trixie must use every trick she has left to save her small fan club, and especially Ruby. Because Trixie made a promise to Berry Punch, and she won't allow herself to break that promise.

The Crystal Prep 5 (aka Sunny Flare, Lemon Zest, Sugarcoat, Sour Sweet, and Indigo Zap) may be friends, but their personalities couldn't be any more different, causing them to occasionally clash. When they go to a local party though, they meet some guys who have very similar traits to their own. Two other students, Neon Lights and Moon Dancer, take notice of this and decide to hook them up. Could this be a chance for the girls to find some love?

Two MLP fans who live half a world away from each other begin a romance RP.

This is a slightly experimental style of story, following two parallel narratives: a romance between Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash in Equestria, and the relationship between two RPers in our world.

Although the rules of fimfiction forbid chat logs being published as stories, I'll note that the chat logs in this story are fictional — they have been entirely crafted by the author, and are not just copied and pasted from a real chat — and only form a small part of the story. I asked a moderator before I even started writing, and he seemed to think it would be okay. While the story is intentionally written as if it could have been an RP, I can assure you I wrote the whole thing myself. I've never even RPed PinkieDash.

This story is a birthday present for one of the most amazing individuals on the planet. Many thanks to Infinity Shade, scootaloo96, and Frowning Sugarcoat for pre-reading this, and offering me their feedback, which I blissfully ignored.

With her friends and the school seemingly turned against her, Sunset Shimmer flees, quickly finding herself in the presence of a strange student, whose views clash with everything Twilight and the others have ever taught her about Friendship.

However, does that make him wrong? Is Friendship truly Magic? Or can it be something much darker?

She could've been many things after leaving Canterlot High. A baker, a comedian, a singer, a professional party planner.

Yet instead, Pinkie chose another path in life. A road nobody thought she would ever travel. For Pinkie Pie, being a police officer is almost second nature to her.

Written for the June 19th short story Writeoff Group event using the prompt "A Matter of Perspective".
